If it is a ratio of 3:5 you are dividing 480 into 8 parts (3+5).

So divide 480 by 8: 480/8 = 60

Then the ratio is (3x60):(5x60) or 180:300

To check it is correct, add up the two parts to see that they come to 480:

180+300 = 480. All good.

Hope this helps

Answer:

The number 480 after dividing in the ratio 3:5 are 180 and 300

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to divide the number 480 in the ratio 3:5

Let the numbers after dividing be 3x and 5x

(3x:5x=3:5)

3x+5x=480

⇒ 8x=480

Dividing both sides by 8, we get

x=60

So, the numbers after dividing are:

3×60=180

and 5×60=300

Hence, the number 480 after dividing in the ratio 3:5 are 180 and 300

A candy store held a contest to guess the total number of jelly beans in a jar. All of the jelly beans in the jar were either gr

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of orange jelly beans be x , as we do not know the exact value of it yet. There are 12 times as many green jelly beans than the orange ones. So , if the number of orange jelly beans is x , the number of green jelly beans will be = 12 times x , which can be written as 12x. Now there are a total of 1872 jelly beans , but they are either orange or green , so we already know that the number of orange jbs is x , and the number of green jelly beans is 12x. So if we the green jelly beans and orange jelly beans , it should be 1872.

Now all we need to do is to find x.

We know that ,

x + 12x = 1872

Now we add x and 12x on the left hand side

13x = 1872

Now we divide both sides by 13 to get x. (That includes 1872 as well)

x = 144

Now we have the value of x which is 144

We know that the number of green jelly beans was 12 times x

So the number of green jelly beans in numeric value is : 12 * 144

As x is equal to 144

Ans . : The number of green jelly beans is 1728.

The distance on a map between Lynwood and Forest Hill is 3.75 inches. According to the map key, 0.25 inch on the map is equivale

Volgvan

Answer:

15 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the actual distance in miles between Lynwood and Forest Hill, we can use a rule of three:

If 0.25 inch on the map is equivalent to 1 mile, then 3.75 inch on the map is equivalent to what distance:

0.25 inch -> 1 mile

3.75 inch -> X miles

0.25/3.75 = 1/X

X = 3.75/0.25 = 15 miles

The actual distance between Lynwood and Forest Hill is 15 miles.
